A link to the listing in question is required.

It is an authenticator’s right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format. If the listing you are interested in is missing photos it is your responsibility to request them from the seller prior to posting in this thread.

you have a mix of 2 different bags pics
2 tags cannot belong to one and the same bag
HI Kuromax,
Thank you for taking a look at it. Sorry about the confusion, I had glare when I was photographing the back of the tag and wasn't sure that the numbers were readable so I included two in case one picture read better than the other.

I've taken another pic of the back of the tag this morning, hopefully this is readable. All the photos are of the same bag.
Thank you again for our help.

What Ksuro was commenting on was the fact that the tag backs you posted originally came from two different bags. The second pic has the style number for a Day bag.

Your right Kuromax, I've just realised I've included a day bag tag!! My mistake, the tag that belongs to the bag I'm looking to get authenticated is the one I just re posted. The other second tag I have included belongs to a day bag and shouldn't have been included. Sorry about that.

Can you take a clearer pic of the back of the zipper head and another rivet please? Ideally a clearer shot of the tag back too but I realize that can be difficult.
Hi muchstuff,

I've taken a pic of all four rivets, the back of the zipper head and an additional two pics of the back of the tag, these are darkish but they show the contours of the numbers a bit better. I hope this is helpful. Thank you.
